But we are getting another one. That or a new one is created out of this one. It's hardly the first time they started anew, it'll happen again eventually. Such is the nature of comics and Transformers itself. Always reinvented and changing, some like, some don't. We'll get old takes, new takes and some in between smooshed together to create something familiar yet different. It reminds me of Doctor Who.
The big question that needs to be asked is if IDW will still have the license because I'm having doubts. They lost quite a bit of money themselves.
If Revolution was the fatal blow not sure, but sales were horrid. The 2005 forum had some sales numbers there.
It's not change that bugs me, it's the likelihood of changing back to the old formula after years of good comics told by jumping off the war and doing something new. TAAO was the story about the political dealings of 20ft tall robots and I couldn't have enjoyed it more than I did. MTMTE was more about the handholding than the fights and it's in my Top 5 favourite comic series of all time.
I wonder if the license goes back to Marvel and history repeats itself with Simon Furman getting his hands on the property again.
